not really. you have to remember just because they are both made by Native Instruments, how you DJ using traktor is not the same as how you dj with traktor scratch pro. just because awesome has been using traktor with his denon for a number of months now, there would probably be a steep learning curve if he were to come over to my place and try to use tsp with turntables on the otherhand if i were to go over to cupes and have a go on his turnies, the learning curve will be a lot lower. so i think dvs' have nothing to do with controller djing. in fact using an all in one with platters is actually more akin to using cdjs. i.e its the same feel and process. totally agree with what your saying here.. vote 1 pedro
